Parents need to know that this sci-fi crime series can be quite violent. Characters often use weapons and get in fights; episodes have included hostage situations, gunshot wounds, a swimming pool filled with blood, a man knocking a woman down, and so on. Murder victims show up in various gruesome states (cut in half, brains removed, etc.). Discussion of criminal investigations include references to "whores" and "crack heads," and there's some other minor profanity. Some episodes include information about how to make explosives (combine drain cleaner and lemonade) and other potentially iffy material.
